Ya, that's sweet.
With the Auto-Save feature it is very fast and easy to automate for me.
I didn't fiddle with it (at all) but it was a little odd: with regular save, it asks for the Save a second time using standard Windows Save As dialog, but that is neither here nor there.
Awesome. Thanks.

Does anyone have a recommendation on the fastest Print to pdf driver installable as a printer?
I have to automate thousands of print to pdfs.
I can use one default filename; the pdfs are immediately deleted.
I am currently using CutePDF Writer, which is great as a general use printer, but it is a huge bottleneck waiting for the Save As screen to come up and to send it a filename, etc.
Thanks!

PS: has to be made a system default printer
No, the putting of hundreds of logos on scanned documents is though. Try not to take offense so easily, my friend, I suggest to you. It will betray your vanity. Thanks for the help! J
I've been away a while.
Is there a recorder any longer, which will transfer to script the keystrokes and mouse moves to do a repetitive task such as putting a logo on hundreds of scanned documents? Zzzzzzz....

How can I programmatically access an item in the 2000 Server Control Panel?
I haven't found an exe or cpl that associates w it and I don't know besides WINNT folder where to look.
Specifically I want ProControl, a Progress database control panel, if anyone has experience there.
Thanks.

$FinePrecision = 100
While 1
Sleep(30000)
If @Hour = 10 And @Min = 59 And @Sec > 30 Then
While @Sec <> 0
Sleep($FinePrecision)
Wend
PerformFn()
EndIf
Wend
To clarify, the max sleep value is in the help (quote):
Remarks
Maximum sleep time is 2147483647 milliseconds (24 days).
IMHO if the user needs a longer period, they should be prepared to research the issue and then toss Sleep(x) into a loop. That unlikely scenario is better than anyone wasting time redoing the Sleep fn.

Great ideas! Finally someone has made something useful with AutoIt (just kidding)! I like the Valuator code very much.
I suggest one be able to set a window as a panic window, so if the boss slips in, you're in a bona fide work program.
PS. Something like this is perfect for me because of the way my cubicle is located. Great!

Your time period is almost 18 million years. If your computer is still running after that long, give me a call.
Ha! (Just having fun).
Sounds like your computer is sick. Take action before it croaks.
